GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST

With a 1-4 record this is a must win. Although it is probably going to get worse before it gets better.

The Pacers will be without Myles Turner.

It looks like Morris will be back and Seth is listed as Questionable.

Please give Patty's minutes to Yuta. Images of Patty guarding Luka the last game still gives me nightmares...

Man if we can't score on the Pacers with this level of shooting on the floor, we need to pack it up.

Nets can’t hold leads. Been a problem since last season.

The problems continue, Nash is awful at getting them set for three point defense. STOP leaving the opposition open; please get rid of Nash already!

The Pacers are getting too many wide open looks........they hit 11 3's in the first half.

These KD turn overs are killing us too

What’s being lost with how terrible Simmons is offensively, is that he’s being absolutely destroyed defensively as the small ball 5 as well.

He’s unplayable right now. We’re playing with an active handicap. He’s not even doing the one thing he’s supposed to be elite at well.

Nets defense is horrible might be worse than last year.

You could actually hear the frustration from the crowd. These breakdowns in the second half are becoming predictable.

This is Simmons as a small ball 5 guys. There’s no resistance, because he’s not capable of being a small ball 5 on defense, he’s been probably the biggest liability on defense out of everyone.

And on offense, we’re scoring in spite of him. It’s a combination of Indiana being a bad team that doesn’t know how to play defense and having great shooters that can hit semi contested shots. But if you put in Watanabe or Mills instead of Simmons, literally everything would run much smoother.

See, Claxton can actually play the 5 on defense, and actually attacks the rim on offense. And you can play 4 perimeter players that can all dribble and shoot.

Our offense and defense both significantly improve. Shocking.
